Good write Gold.
I read a similar story.
Woman says to Minister: \'I haven\'t sinned for some time now\'.
Minister: \'You must feel very proud of that\'.
Woman: \'Oh yes I do!\'(And so she sins in her immodest sort of pride. Doh!).
Not the pride of genuine appreciation, etc.

He he he, reminds me of a story Vincent price told when he sat behind three young girls in a cinema watching one of his old horror movies. At the movies end he leant forward placing his head between two of them and in his famous horror voice asked \"Well, did you like it?\"
Needless to say they ran off screaming.

I can\'t tell you how much your words resound within me. My watershed was my beautiful daughter being born mentally handicapped overseen by this omnipotent god.
Since rejecting the falsness of christianity so much more spirituality has entered my life. My disbeliefs, in the christianity i grew up being taught, are bolstered by the likes of eloquent speakers such as Stephen Fry who are able to voice the subject far better than me.

We are guilted in to believing, and then fear holds us captive.
Absence of these, we become truly liberated.

I just got caught up, distracted maybe with some forms of service - Pentecostal type - should I sit, stand, clap, bow, ump up and down, etc? Though it didn\'t seem to affect my basic beliefs.

Some could be happy for you, and say \'Glad you\'ve left all that rubbish now\', but I feel the sadness in this.
In my hymn-poems, even if I might not trust in all I write, I feel there is a spark of faith, however small at times.
I can understand it though, with words such as \'Christ meets all my needs\', which can seem to mock you, and others.
Yet I go on writing about \'comfort\' etc - in the sense of \'solace\' and \'strengthen\'.

Andy,
I like the way you think...
and write!
I guess most of us end up where we need to be! I never thought I’d be where I am right now, but here I am...
and will be as long as I’m needed!
My love to Joyce and to you!

That sir is a very good read. Immediately i thought of the book \"The road less traveled\" where i learned much.
Some might think that to write such a piece the author would be smug.... but no sir not you. Your writing reveals a very humble down to earth soul who has indeed traveled far spiritually.
